Hey people, I hope you are all enjoying the content...!
Thanks for all the support...(・∀・)ﾉ
Today I come to talk to you about the recent considerable drop in production in my art. Maybe some of you have noticed and maybe some of you (newer members) haven't, but gone are the days of receiving 6-8 paks a month with dozens of extra versions and long rambling comments on various topics, whether related or not.
The truth is that in the 5+ years that I've been here on Patreon little has changed in me, I still feel the same fervor and passion for drawing, my head is still full of ideas that bother me every day so I let them out and do something with them, the fun of sharing my work and talking to all of you is still one of the best parts of my day.
In short, I am the same as always.
But then, what has changed...?
Well, the things that have changed are all things around me.
Things like my real life job™, family, friends and interests have changed.
But don't take any of this as a complaint, in fact everything has changed for the better, I'm doing great, much, much better than 5 years ago.
It's weird, but for me the sour part about all of this is seeing so much progress in all these other parts of my life but not in my art.
I feel rather ungrateful for thinking this way.
My philosophy in life has always been to put in more effort and keep pushing forward regardless of the results. Any small amount of progress will start to add up, and when you look back you'll see that you're higher than you used to be.
And in the end, even if everything goes wrong, failing at what you love is better than succeeding at things you don't care about.
I still believe in this and still recommend it as a way to live a fulfilling life.
But perspective is also important, I am a big fan of personal responsibility and I know that making decisions does not lead to automatic happiness, in fact quite the opposite, making decisions limits you, takes parts of your life and leads you to a narrower path. But this is OK since as they say, "you can't have your cake and eat it".
At the moment I am choosing not to stress about deadlines, posting things at 4am, back pain and lack of sleep.
But you can be sure that I still take my work with mad passion, every spare minute I find throughout the day is a minute I use to draw more. When I'm not in front of the drawing tablet I'm thinking about character designs, poses, outfits, perspective, compositions.
In the end I just think I have reached the limit where I can no longer cram more effort into my day to day without neglecting other parts of my life that are also important to me.
But rest assured, if any other part of my duties starts to wind down and give me a little more free time I'll do a mad dash to push more content out...!
I'll do it, because that's what mad lads do.../( .□.)＼ ︵╰(°益°)╯︵ /(.□. /)

The royal highness of the mushroom kingdom can only have the highest quality curves...👑✨ The idea about adding the stars came to me as I thought Peach's dress was pretty plain. So I wanted to add some extra detail. Cool to see that you liked it... 👍

I love her curves, those traffic-stopping curves EVERYWHERE! Also, the Star pillow is a cute idea. :D
